In 1956 Staten Island, Buddy Visalo (Rispoli) has big plans — and a nay-saying wife (Katherine Narducci) who gives new meaning to the phrase ”ball and chain.” Sometimes all it takes is the love of a good woman, though, and Buddy’s new tenant, an Irish immigrant with problems of her own (Macdonald), may just be the one to provide it in this small, heartfelt drama about what it means to have a dream come true.
